The City should work in coordination with other agencies, transit <br />districts and jurisdictions to maximize opportunities for Complete Streets, connectivity, <br />and cooperation in designing and building transportation projects. <br />7.Design: The City will define and generally follow its own accepted or adopted design <br />standards, and will also use the latest design standards and innovative design options, <br />with a goal of balancing user needs. <br />8.Context Sensitivity: The planning and implementation of transportation projects will <br />reflect conditions within and surrounding the project area, whether the area is a <br />residential or business district or urban, suburban, or rural. Project planning, design <br />and construction of Complete Streets projects should include working with residents, <br />merchants and other stakeholders to ensure that a strong sense of place is maintained. <br />9.Performance Measures: The City will establish performance measures, and identify a <br />means to collect data for the measures necessary to evaluate the implementation of <br />the Complete Streets policy. Specific measures, such as tracking the number of miles <br />of bicycle lanes and sidewalks, numbers of street crossings, and transit ridership, <br />should be listed. <br />10.Implementation Next Steps: The City will include a list of specific next steps for <br />implementation of the Complete Streets policy. Implementation actions should require <br />that any proposed improvements be evaluated for consistency with all local plans, <br />including bicycle, pedestrian and/or transit plans, and any other plans that affect the <br />right-of-way. Implementation actions should also require that public input on projects <br />and plans will be solicited from stakeholders, including the BPAC and other advisory <br />groups, as appropriate, as early in the development process as possible. <br />Committee Review and Actions <br />·Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee - November 14, 2012: The Committee had a <br />positive reception to the topic and provided input to the Policy Vision statement <br />·Facilities and Transportation Committee - November 14, 2012 <br />Applicable General Plan Policies <br />·14.04 Accommodation of Bicycles and Pedestrians <br />·17.01 Traffic Calming Strategies <br />·17.04 Coordination with Urban Design Improvements <br />·18.02 Capital Improvements <br />·18.05 Funding <br />·19.01 Street and Building Design <br />·19.05 Narrower Streets <br />·20.04 Community Input <br />Page 4 City of San Leandro Printed on 1/30/2013
